In this course, using a combination of humor and examples, we will focus on tax developments that affect 2023 income tax return preparation and 2023 income tax planning for businesses.
Is there such a thing as a “light” tax year? If there is, 2023 certainly wasn’t it! Most of the tax provisions in SECURE Act 2.0 (enacted December 29, 2022) came into effect in 2023. The SECURE Act modifies the RMD rules for retirement plans and makes an unprecedented number of changes to other retirement plan provisions. In addition, all the modified energy credits included in the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) are first effective for 2023. This includes credits for electric vehicles, increased credits for energy-efficient home improvements, increased business energy credits, and the provision allowing the sale of energy credits between taxpayers. In addition, there have been important IRS regulations, other IRS releases, and important court decisions during 2023. Don=s 2023 Tax Update will focus on 2023 developments affecting 2023 returns and 2023 tax planning, including planning with SECURE 2.0, the Inflation Reduction Act, IRS releases, and court cases. We will also revisit some areas of the law that are often troubling for practitioners. Just some of the topics to be covered include B.
